From June 16th to 23rdon the way “Terracomunica”, the national festival that puts people at the center of action. Great guests to reflect on the various fields of social sustainability.
Gubbio is a great protagonist, for a week, of sustainability and a meeting place between authors, writers, artists, entrepreneurs and professionals who will talk about their experience to make life on earth increasingly sustainable.
The national festival “Terracomunica, the week of sustainability”, promoted by the Terracomunica APS association, founded in 2004, kicks off from June 16th to 23rd.
Great guests will be present at the Sustainability Week in Gubbio to reflect on the various fields of human knowledge and a series of workshops will be offered, for adults and children, concerts and talks. In all, around twenty events to compare experiences, knowledge and enhance places and territories. They range from nature to science, to doing business, from marketing to journalism, from history to the anthropology of the market, passing through music, botany and many recreational and educational activities.
“The aim – explains the president of the Terracomunica association Paolo Tosti – carried out for decades, is to create a festival of national resonance based on “sustainability”, a key word, often abused, but essential because it is associated with the fight against climate change , to new models of production and consumption, but also to a more inclusive economic model that redistributes value and resources across the territory and people. The concept of sustainability can have different cultural and design meanings and declinations in every company and place. Our ambition is to discover an Italian way that leads to sustainability, founded on our humanistic culture and rooted in people’s daily “doing”.
The Festival is organized, as in previous editions, in collaboration with Richmond Italia, a leading company in the organization of business events.
From Sunday 16 to Sunday 23 June in Gubbio, three business forums dedicated to Marketing, Sustainability and Procurement will be hosted, with the main national players of companies linked to sustainability in different business fields.
A great event to attract a growing number of guests, tourists, professionals from Italian and international companies to Gubbio, to make the Gubbio area grow: “For this – adds Tosti – we collaborate with private companies such as Richmond Italia and other national partners. The forums are organized to make the best use of Gubbio’s hotel facilities.” The “Terracomunica” project was born from the idea of Paolo Tosti and from the perseverance and commitment of the members, with the patronage of the Municipality of Gubbio. The calendar of initiatives includes public talks, business forums, concerts, workshops and laboratories for adults and children, in collaboration with the Gubbio Youth Centre.
The free entry events will be held in the Sala dell’Arengo of Palazzo dei Consoli with guests such as the botanist and essayist Stefano Mancuso, the economist and professor Giulio Sapelli, the social entrepreneurs Bill Niada and Franco Chianelli, the journalists Roberto Bonzio and many others .
